Description: Gerald O'Collins continues his groundbreaking work in Christology by first tracing its major developments over the last fifty years.He next turns to a theology of resurrection--Christology's central event--and the foundational roles played by its two great witnesses,Peter and Paul. O'Collins then masterfully constructs a "theology of religions" that explores the relationship of Christianity to other living faiths precisely in light of the priesthood of Jesus Christ.
